Serious Incident Reporting

The NCSP requests that all serious incidents (SIs) and near misses are reported to the NCSP to help us identify areas where guidance may be needed and to share learning points. This is not intended to duplicate existing PCT procedures for investigating SIs.

NCSP Serious Incident reporting policy:

The following Lessons learnt reports have been circulated to local programmes following specific SIs where the investigations have highlighted learning points that may help other programmes reduce the risk of a similar incident occuring:



Be proactive
The National Chlamydia Screening Programme (NCSP) is a control and prevention programme targeted at the highest risk group for chlamydia infection in England, young people under 25 who are sexually active.

Chlamydia is often asymptomatic so a large proportion of cases remain undiagnosed, but infection can be diagnosed easily (young people can do the test themselves), and treated effectively.
